    From Teen Mom Stigma To School Founder with Dr. Delois Jackson

    Send us Fan Mail People will try to name your future before you even get a chance to live it. Wanda Pearson sits down with Dr. Delois Jackson, an award-winning author, international speaker, and Pre-K through 12 private school owner, to talk about what it really takes to outgrow stigma and build a purpose-driven life. Dr. Delois Jackson is the creator of from Diapers to Diplomas.  We get personal about teen motherhood, the whispers and judgment that follow you into rooms, and the quiet internal fight to keep believing you’re capable. Dr. Jackson shares how she chose education anyway, pushed through the pressure to “shrink,” and went on to earn multiple degrees and lead as a senior leader in a long government career. From there, she followed a calling into education entrepreneurship, learning how to turn a preschool into a fully approved private school built on compassion, structure, and student empowerment. We also dig into faith and storytelling as tools for leadership development and healing. Dr. Jackson explains how writing began with a challenge to put faith on the page, how her books grew over time, and why affirmations and self-esteem aren’t “nice to have” when you’re trying to rebuild your life, they’re essential. Her closing message is a reminder for anyone who feels unseen: you’re not invisible, you are becoming, and your voice can help someone else survive their hardest season.

    Healing While Building with LaShana West

    Send us Fan Mail Your business can be thriving while your nervous system is screaming. That tension is where Wanda Pearson and guest LaShana West go deep, because a lot of ambitious leaders know how to build results, but they do not know how to stay whole while doing it. LaShana is the founder of Healing While Building, a business therapist, and a leadership mindset coach who helps high achievers stop shrinking and start leading with grounded confidence. We unpack what “shrinking” really looks like in corporate spaces and entrepreneurship, why impostor syndrome hits some of the most capable people in the room, and how unresolved emotional patterns can show up as physical burnout signals. If you have ever felt successful on paper but stuck in survival mode at home, this conversation will feel uncomfortably familiar in the best way. We also get practical about moving from hustle culture to wholeness. LaShana breaks down why balance is not the goal, harmony is, and why systems, boundaries, and realistic rhythms matter if you want sustainable success. One line you will not forget: rest is not a reward; it is a requirement. From pausing instead of procrastinating to redefining success as presence, peace, and health, you will walk away with a clear next step you can take today to show up for yourself. Listen through, then share it with the leader in your life who is carrying too much. Subscribe, leave a review, and tell us: what is one boundary you are ready to set this week?

    Your Purpose Gets Clear When You Know Who You Are with Chassidy Bayone

    Send us Fan Mail Who are you when you remove the uniform, the job title, the relationship status, and every gold star you’ve ever earned? That question sounds simple, but it can shake your whole life when grief hits, a role changes, or the thing you relied on disappears. We’re joined by Chassidy Bayone, author of *Who Are You? No Titles Necessary* and a leader with 13 years of military service, to talk about identity beyond titles and the real cost of building your worth on what you do. Chassidy shares how losing her parents pushed her into a deeper search for purpose, and how faith helped her stop trying to numb pain with control, overwork, and validation. We also get practical about what to do when you genuinely don’t know who you are anymore: find the root, name what’s binding you, and start the work of letting it go. From prayer and scripture to leadership lessons about rank and pride, we dig into how identity in Christ reshapes self-love, resilience, and the way we serve other people. We also talk about unity, collaboration, and why “free people help free people,” plus the meaning behind Chassidy’s work through Who Are You 59 and I’m Still Here LLC. If you’ve survived a hard season and you’re still asking why you’re here, this conversation offers hope, direction, and a new way to answer “Who am I?” Subscribe to Ready Set Collaborate podcast platform, share this with someone who needs it, and leave a review so more listeners can find Ready Set Collaborate.

    How A Book Becomes A Living Digital Experience with Marianne Bailey and Wanda Pearson

    Send us Fan Mail A book can change you, but what happens when the real work starts after you close the cover? Wanda Pearson and Marianne Bailey pull back the curtain on a collaboration that transforms Wanda’s forgiveness book, *Forgiveness: Walking In Freedom Through God’s Grace*, into a living digital experience designed for reflection, healing, and real-life follow-through. We talk about why “I need a website” is often the wrong ask, and what happens when you design an online experience that actually serves people instead of just describing you. Marianne walks through the interactive journey they built, including a guided “vault” that helps you name what you’re carrying, reflect on its impact, and practice releasing it step by step. You’ll hear why self-forgiveness is often the hardest part, how forgiveness can be a daily practice, and why privacy matters when people are processing shame, fear, grief, or trauma. We also zoom out to the bigger picture for authors, speakers, coaches, nonprofits, and small businesses: how to create something that evolves with your work, supports your audience between events, and gives people a reason to come back. The conversation includes a grounded take on AI, SEO, and AEO, with a clear line drawn between using AI as a tool and keeping human vision and heart at the center. If you’ve been sitting on a message you feel called to share, you’ll leave with practical encouragement to start, plus ideas for turning your content into an experience people can use. Subscribe for more collaborations like this, share the episode with someone who needs a fresh start with forgiveness, and leave a review with the one feature you’d want in a living digital experience.

    How Knowing Who You Are Transforms Your Writing, Your Business, And Your Life with Dr. Toccara Nicole

    Send us Fan Mail What if the strongest marketing plan is actually your identity? We sit down with Dr. Toccara Nicole—author, publisher, and the Identity Architect—to unpack how a rooted sense of self transforms your writing, your leadership, and your ability to build a platform that lasts. From the first spark in a co-author project to a book that became a lifeline for people in transition, she shows how clarity at the core shapes every chapter and every choice. We explore the blueprint behind her work at VOS Consulting and Publishing International, where foundation comes first. Dr. Toccara explains why authors become entrepreneurs by default, how to “monetize your genius” without gimmicks, and what it really takes to position a book readers want to buy. You’ll learn her MEET framework—mindset, environment, energy, and time—and how these four gears turn together to move you from concept to published. We also dig into practical tools for beating fear: start with journaling, reframe unhelpful voices, and commit to sharing your story even when it feels vulnerable. Beyond the page, we talk about women’s unity, leadership scars that became strengths, and the collaborative energy behind her show Vault Talks. The message ties it all together: knowing who you are is a game-changer, the formula for changing your own game before you change anyone else’s. If you’ve been sitting on a story, a book idea, or the next right step in your business, this conversation gives you a clear path to move forward with purpose.

    What If Leadership Is Simply Helping People Connect with Barry Moline

    Send us Fan Mail One small move can change your whole career: raising your hand before you feel ready. Wanda Pearson sits down with CEO and author Barry Moline to unpack why so many talented professionals wrestle with leadership confidence and how to replace self-doubt with clear, repeatable actions that build real influence. Barry shares the moments that shaped his leadership journey, including a high-pressure story from his early days in hockey that taught him a lifelong lesson about taking responsibility. From there, we get practical about what it takes to grow into stronger leadership roles across corporate, nonprofit, and association environments. The big idea is simple but powerful: leadership is not about having all the answers, it’s about bringing people together so the team can create something better than any one person could do alone. We also break down Barry’s four-part growth strategy: take responsibility, practice grit and persistence, build a growth mindset, and take charge of your career. We connect that growth mindset to real workplace demands like learning AI and staying curious, then zoom in on a confidence-builder you can use immediately: getting reps. Whether it’s speaking up in meetings, giving presentations, or having difficult conversations, practice turns anxiety into capability. If you want career growth, stronger team building, and practical leadership development you can apply today, this conversation is for you.

    Pelvic Health, Finally Explained with Dr. Kari Roberts

    Send us Fan Mail Pelvic health problems love silence, and they thrive on one dangerous belief: “This is just normal now.” We’re breaking that spell with Dr. Kari Roberts, PT, DPT, a pelvic health specialist and the owner of Marone Pelvic Health in Cobb County, Atlanta. If you’ve ever dealt with urinary leakage when you sneeze, urgency that keeps you mapping bathrooms, constipation you can’t explain, pelvic pain, or changes in sexual function, this conversation gives you clear language for what’s happening and real options for what to do next.  We talk through what the pelvic floor is and why it influences bladder control, bowel function, intimacy, and pregnancy and postpartum recovery. Dr. Roberts also explains why pelvic floor physical therapy feels nothing like the typical crowded, gym-style PT clinic. Pelvic PT is private, one-on-one, and designed for sensitive issues that people rarely want to discuss out loud.  Then we go straight at the myths. Kegels are not a one-size-fits-all fix, especially when stress, tight muscles, and poor coordination are driving symptoms. Dr. Roberts shares how stress can change pelvic floor function, why tightness can mimic weakness, and why copying random routines online can backfire. We also walk through what to expect at a first visit, including a thorough intake, a head-to-toe assessment, a practical action plan, and how consent and comfort guide everything, including whether any internal assessment happens at all.  If this resonates, subscribe, share this episode with someone who needs it, and leave a review so more people can find honest pelvic health information that actually helps. What’s one “common” symptom you’re done pretending is normal?
